Super DC Giant #S-14

Target -- Johnny Thunder kicks off with a high-stakes game of wits and daring, as the elusive Johnny Thunder finds himself the target of a determined Eastern woman set on securing him as her partner for the Pioneers Celebration. With a series of heart-pounding escapes—cliff rescues, narrow dodges of Sioux arrows, a daring leap across a chasm, and a swift swim through a rushing river—Johnny’s heroics are all in vain if no one sees them. His plan to hide in plain sight as John Tane, the schoolmaster she dismisses, backfires when his bravery in front of students wins her unexpected approval, leaving him caught between two identities and a promise he never meant to make.

In the dusty town of Rocky City, the unlikely Sheriff Walt faces a crisis of confidence when his brother Wayne—secretly the real gunfighter—insists he wait until the Boy Sheriff Contest winner is crowned. When the young victor claims he’s unfit for the role, Walt takes him on patrol, only to be wounded by the notorious Flat Hat Gang. With no weapon and no backup, Walt stands his ground, and the boy finds his courage—ready to step into the badge for the day. “Still thinking of resigning, Walt?” “Who, me?”
